Which monsters would you like to see implemented?

[Elexia]

Some others i remember and i would like to see: Lamia, Magic Pot, Mind Flayer, Iron Giant and Ultima Weapon of course.

Also Zuu huge bird from FF4 and Shinryu the crystal dragon from 5, would be cool too.

Someone say shinyru?

I quite like this version.

(Yet even more proof XIV ignoring XI was a bad idea instead of building off of it lol.)

I'm probably the only person who loved these and would like to see them again

OK, that was awesome. I really don't know how else to describe it. Thank you for the link.

I started XI in 2004 and played for a little over a year. I quit and then came back two years later. After that I played on and off until last year (much more "off" than "on" at the end).

You know, when I first installed XI I imagined having the kind of experiences like I saw in that video. Not all the time, of course, but I wanted the kind of epic, story-driven boss battles that helped make the Final Fantasy series great. In the end, I spent a great deal of time running around mines, crafting, and killing the same mob over and over.

It may sound like I'm trying to put down XI or disagree with the person I quoted. Not at all. Actually, I have really good memories of XI. Also, I'm partially at fault for how I played the game: my priorities were a little off. Nevertheless, I felt like the really cool experiences were always a little too far out of reach. At first I was too low level, so I leveled up, and I mined and crafted to earn money for gear and spells. Once I was a high enough level, however, it was usually very hard to find a group to do the missions. When I did do them they were great: one of my fondest memories of XI was beating the original Shadow Lord. But unfortunately I only ever got to rank 9, halfway through Zilart, halfway through Promathia, and only having started the Aht Urhgan and Wings of the Goddess missions. That is what I regret most of all about the time I spent playing XI.

I've heard that XI has become more accessible, which sounds like a good thing. And the video that Elexia posted indicates that they have put some really amazing content in there. That was a real Final Fantasy battle: the enemy design, the battlefield, and the music work together to make something that's much more epic than just fighting a mob. That's the kind of thing I want out of my Final Fantasy game.

No, I don't expect battles like that to happen all the time. They wouldn't be quite as special if they did. And I want to fight a boss like that in a group, not solo. I just hope that it's not too hard to put that group together. I certainly don't mind losing--no challenge is no fun--but I want to spend my time playing compelling content, not sitting around hoping that I might get a chance to play it.

I think that the FFXIV dev team will eventually get exciting content into this game. I just don't know how long it will take, or if the battle, job, and party formation systems will work out. I certainly hope so, though.

Anyway, that was really off-topic (sorry). To make this post at least somewhat relevant to the title of the thread...

1) Hell House (FFVII -- found inside Midgar)
I guess it would be difficult to find an area where these would fit in, though. Maybe somewhere in the Garlean Empire?
2) Mind (from the final area of FFIV)
3) Ozma (FFIX)
4) any of the Weapons (FFVII)

I would like to see RABBITS! I am tired of squirrels.
